Bought one minute after pre orders: midnight, 8/8, 16GB, 1TB, double charger.
No movement so far. Apple Card charge lending still. Nothing in ups.
 
Card just got charged (or at least the €0 hold was turned into full amount reservation) 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Status still “being processed” and dates Aug 1-8.
Same here, CC charged today, and status is “being processed”, with delivery dates Aug 1-8. 8/16GB/1TB midnight blue - going to replace my trusty MBA 11" "Mid 2013" i5/4GB/512GB 🚀

Really really hope it means we’ll be unboxing early 🤞🏻☺️

My order just changed to "preparing to ship" and my account was charged, which is great. What is not so great is that my arrives date changed from "July 18-25," which is what is has been showing since I ordered at 8:02am, to "July 26-August 2." Will it really have a further delay after they charged my account?

Midnight 10/8GB/512GB

same thing happened to me today
 
My MacBook Air M2 shipping is delayed. I placed the order on the 8th early in the morning.
My order was supposed to be here between Jul 18 - Jul 25 by Express Delivery.

Today the schedule was changed to Jul 26- Aug 2 by Standard Delivery.

I call apple and didn't get any straight answer but only an apology.

If you have placed an order check your delivery schedule.
 
I’ve pre-ordered my M2 Macbook Air on the 8th of July at 8:13 (just 13 minutes after pre-order went live).

Initially the shipping date was July 15th, till July 22nd. Today, when I open my order, I see it slipped to July 26th till the August 2nd.

Anyone else facing similar delay?

Mine went from Jul 26 - Aug 2... to Jul 25 - Aug 1... so the opposite. Mine improved by a day.
Apple must be getting info when it hits preparing to ship and adjusting accordingly based on what UPS or FedEx tells them.

My order has slipped by a day to July 27 to August 4, but the status has now been updated to “Preparing to Ship”.
 
Mine finally departed Louisville, KY. I feel they’re really stretching the timeline so it gets here the 15 and not sooner. Wow 😅
